Grandparents and Grandfriends

We had a fun visit from the 8th grade orchestra kids Wednesday! They played some songs for us and let the 2nd graders get up close to the instruments! They showed the 2nd graders how to play their instruments and then the 2nd graders played a song! Super fun! Look for pictures of this at the end of the blog. We had a super fun time with our grandparents/friends on Monday! What a pleasure to see
the beautiful connection between the generations! So much love to go around! The kids had so much fun being with them and singing for them!

They have had a ton of fun learning about businesses and economics!
